![]() Once in Lightroom, I (typically) apply a little extra global adjustment if needed and then also local adjustments. However, I really do see a difference and prefer the results I get in the initial rendering from Capture One, and also, to be honest, as I have a significant investment in Capture One (from the days when it really was the only acceptable game in town if you wanted to work with RAW), I don’t want to abandon it and essentially give up on that investment. In part, it would make sense to work on the RAW file all in one programme. Maybe I should try to do everything in Lightroom to save myself the effort, as that would seem logical. Then I export as a full sized 16 bit TIFF and import that file into Lightroom.** To tell the truth, I don’t really fully know why I do this. I kinda follow that approach, but aim to get much of what I want for the next stage, so I don’t need to take things too far in the resulting file (since it will be a TIFF, which while being far far better than a jPeg, is still not as flexible as the original RAW file). Some people develop really flat with the intent of having the greatest possibly leeway in other programmes. I aim for some global approximation of how I want the finished result to be. ![]() I go for a moderately flat rendering, but not as totally flat as others might do. In other words, I develop globally at this stage and don’t do any local adjustments. My basic and admittedly somewhat illogical workflow is to import and open the RAW file in Capture One Pro and to develop it to give a reasonably finished looking result at a global level. It’s all a bit subjective really though, so whatever makes people happy is best I guess. ![]() Sure, you can pick apart some aspects and show, at a pixel level, where other developers might do an arguably better job at some specific subset or localised aspect, but in the end it all comes down to overall rendering, and that’s where I find Capture One to be the winner. I’ve tried Lightroom,* Capture One, the now discontinued Aperture and Iridient Developer, and my feeling is this – overall Capture One gives the most pleasing results. One reason why is that I find it gives the nicest results from the Fujifilm X-Series RAW files. What follows is a slightly modified version. It turned out to be quite long, so I thought I’d turn it into a proper blog entry here. But they will still be compatible with Capture One 23.I just answered a comment query about my use of VSCO Film presets in this post. Latitude Infinite Peaks by Bryan MinearĪny other Styles or Style Packs will not receive an update. Only the Styles packs below will receive an update to advanced Styles: ![]() If you’re working with other versions (21, 22, Capture One for iPad) or simply prefer the existing feature (having Styles applied directly to the background or to a single Layer) you will have to install stylepack. This feature is only available in 16.0 and newer. If you believe the flexibility of this feature will benefit your workflow, you will have to install stylepack. When applying these Styles, the Layers will be automatically applied, and their opacities can be adjusted. Now you can decide your Styles preference – new for Capture One 23Īstylepack includes layered versions of the Styles, where the adjustments are divided into two or more Layers. When you buy Styles (as of November 2022), you will receive a zip file, which consists of two installation packs: ![]()
